History of Newark 

NEWARK'S KNACK AT MAKING THINGS 
Written by Frank J. Urquhart 

Photos Loaned by Dr. Wm. S. Disbrow 




EWARK has always known 
how to make things. There 
is no more gainsaying this 
than there is disputing the 
fact that the town came into 
being in mid-May, 1666. It has been "in 
the breed," to use a homely old expres- 
sion, since the beginning. Moreover, 
there is proof enough at hand that the 
founders expected, sooner or later, that 
the community was going to do one kind 
of manufacturing or another. The sharp 
and comprehensive glances of the very 
pioneer committee of the settlers, who 
came here and traversed the ground at 
least once before the actual settlement, 
saw the possibilities that abode in the 
almost innumerable brooks and stream- 
lets splashing down the nearer hillsides, 
affording ample water power. 

There was also a certain deftness about 
them that the close reader of their Old 
Minute Book soon detects. Whatever 
they did they did well. Three-quarters 
of a century ago, men engaged in re- 
moving the last surviving traces of 
ancient homes — habitations of the second 
or third generation of Newark folk- — 



took special note of the extreme stability 
of even the crumbling ruins. The ob- 
servers, good workmen themselves, mar- 
veled at the traces of excellent work- 
manship that they were able to discern. 

We all of us know, today, by our re- 
markably well laid out Broad Street, by 
its ingenious accommodating of itself to 
the contour of the blufif which still sur- 
vives along the river front, and by its 
gratifying width — that the founders 
were no ordinary men. They saw far — 
very far — ahead, and they utilized every 
physical advantage they discovered in 
this wilderness, thus permitting us to 
realize their breadth of vision and their 
capacity for doing whatever it seemed 
meet and fitting for them to do, far 
better than most of their neighbors. 

They were neat, orderly and system- 
n.tic in their work. This is not hearsay ; 
the Old Minute Book proves this for us. 
over and over again. They had system 
and method. They at once went at the 
draining of the marshes— and the marsh 
was all about them, in the very center of 
the town. They told oflf the able-bodied

men into squads to ditch the pubHc 
lands, seeing to it that each did his full 
and proper share. They fined hini if he 
failed in this ; the "slacker" had no 
rest, lie could not live in idleness upon 
his own acres. It was necessary that he 
should ditch his own land, in order that 
the few highways and the lands of 
others might be relieved speedily in 
times of Hood and in prolonged rainy 
weather. So it was also when it came 
to building the roads (which was largely 




"Wake-up Drum" — 16G6 

a matter of widening and straightening 
and "short-cutting" the Indian trails) ; 
each man did his part. On "burning" 
days — when the salt meadows were to 
be cleared by flame and when brush was 
to be similarly disposed of in clearings — 
the proper sort of day, after a rain, with 
the wind from the proper quarter and 
after due notice to the town by drum- 
beat, was an imperative necessity. 

When it came to the building of their 
first grist mill (on the north side of the 
]:)resent Clay Street, a short distance to 
the west of Broad Street) they were ex- 
ceedingly particular that it should be 
done in the best manner. Two or three 
tried to build it, and the town shook its 
head — the builders did not measure up 
to the high standard required. At last 
Robert Treat took the job into his own 
hands — and the mill was soon in o]:)era- 
tion. This was one of the last public 
services Robert Treat gave to the com- 
munity before returning to Connecticut. 

Ten years or so after the settlement, 
the town meeting voted a fine upon the 



luckless shoulders of anyone who should 
mar or otherwise seriously deface one 
of the trees which the town's officers 
had set aside to be kept inviolate (mani- 
festly for the beautification of the town). 
They would not tolerate slovenliness nor 
untidiness any more than they would 
laziness. They were striving for a 
comely, well ordered village — and they 
surely got it. A hundred years later, 
during the first three or four decades 
after the War for Independence, travelers 
who found their way to Newark, many 
of whom were cultured Frenchmen and 
Englishmen, wrote with great enthu- 
siasm in their books of the village. One 
counted it the most beautifid village he 
had seen in his travels over a large part 
of the world, and many spoke of it as 
beautiful. All this was the fruitage of 
the earnest, high-minded efiforts of the 
first generations, who gave Newark a 
masterful push along right lines. 

But to return more closely to the 
making of things, to the early, albeit 
faint, manifestations of the people's 
trend toward the industries. Newark 
had a tannery as early as 1698, and a 
son-in-law of Robert Treat, Azariah 
Crane ( son of Jasper the Founder, who 
probably laid out the town) built and 
owned it. 

Newark had one or more boat builders 
from the very beginning. It had coop- 
ers and men of other trades. Sometimes 
it subsidized skilled mechanics to settle 
here, by giving them land, free. It was 
not long before the town could manu- 
facture almost everything it needed in 
the way of utensils ; farm implements 
and such things that it could not make it 
got from New York, bartering its farm 
produce for the goods. 

Early in the Eighteenth Century, the 
thrifty Newarkers discovered that the 
red sandstone, of which there was an 
abundance and which they had already 
begun to use for foundation stones for 
their homes, was marketable. Where 
was their first quarry? No one can be 
absolutely certain today, but we may 
rest assured it was not very far from 
Mill Brook (First River) — the stream 
upon whose banks Robert Treat erected 
the first grist mill. Once upon a time

there were ancient quarry holes along 
the north bank of Mill Brook, nearly up 
to the present Branch Brook Park. One 
of the most ancient quarries, however, 
was on the north side of Bloomfield 
Avenue, a little west of Belleville 
Avenue. This was long, long before 
the Clifton-Bloomfield Avenue quarries 
were so much as dreamed of. 

Well, all the stone taken out of these 



they found the outcroppings in abun- 
dance. One could literally fill his saddle 
bags with the ore, just picking it off the 
ground. So they moved their earthly 
possessions up the trails through the 
Caldwell and Roseland region, and be- 
yond, and sat themselves down, per- 
manently, on the banks of the Whippany 
River. Soon their forge fires were 
alight, and they burned without cessa-

quarries for market was rolled or hauled 
down the hillside and to the dock near 
where Mill Brook lost itself in the Pas- 
saic. Thence it was deposited upon the 
staunch, light-draft boats of the period. 
All this made a sort of business centre 
at what is now the Broad and Clay 
Street neighborhood, and it looked at 
one time as if the business heart of the 
community would fix itself there. 

About the year 1700, possibly two or 
three years later, enterprising Newark 
men learned, presumably from the 
Indians, of what for that time were rich 
deposits of iron ore on the hills of 
Morris County. They got the Red Men 
to show them where the iron was. and

for a goodly time thereafter. 

Thus the present Whippany w^as be- 
gun — yes, and the flourishing Morris- 
town, also — by Newark folk. It is said 
that when Washington first found his 
way to Morristown, and rode his horse 
out into the neighboring country, nothing 
interested him so much as the forges. 
He knew that from these he was to get 
cannon balls for his guns. He noted, 
further, that the men at the forges were 
fine, muscular, upstanding chaps. "I 
must have some of these men for my 
army." he is reported to have said — and 
no doubt he got them.

With the opening of the War for In- 
dependence, all these stirrings of early 
industry came well nigh to a standstill 
in and near Newark. War was too 
close to her doors. She was on the edge 
of hostile territory, from the time New 
York fell into the hands of the British 
in the fall of 177G, until the Declara- 
tion of Peace, in 1783. The able men, 
the men of red blood, as we would say, 
were in the regiments of the Continental 
line or were serving for longer or shorter 
periods in the militia. The soil had to 
be tilled, in order that the people might 
have food. So all industries, except 
farming languished. 

But throughout all those grim, dark 
years, men of brains and initiative were 
moving here and there about New Jer- 
sey, men of the Continental Army, the 
bright young gentlemen of the Generars 
staff — Alexander Hamilton and others. 
They were "live wires" ; they hustled. 
They had to, to keep up with their chief, 
Washington. They saw the possibili- 
ties of the region, and when peace came 
and the creation of the industries was 
recognized as vital if the new country 
was to get up on its feet, stand erect 
and maintain its dearly-bought inde- 
pendence — these men were ready with 
facts and with figiires to stir the people 
to the new order of things. 

To start an industry in the first two 
or three decades after the War for Inde- 
pendence, was to create a patriotic en- 
terprise. The shop or mill owner was 
looked upon as, in a sense, a public bene- 
factor. Hamilton, in Washington's 
Cabinet, jireached eternally the great 
need for manufacturing, the fostering of 
the useful arts. Mis gospel was that of 
hundreds of other men ; so the wheels 
began to turn. 

Hamilton remembered Passaic Falls, 
from his old campaigning days. He 
remembered Newark, too. He came 
here, repeatedly, to confer with some of 
the leading men of this town as to the 
establishment of a manufacturing com- 
munity. Many of these conferences 
were held in the home of Klisha Bou- 
dinot which stood on the site of the new 
Public Service Terminal building. They 
decided that their proposed new town 
should be named after the then Governor 



of the State, Paterson. The town had 
a name, when it was still a toss-up 
in the present Springfield, in the section 
(then far out of the town of Newark) 
along the Passaic, near the present 
whether it should be built on the brook 
Fourth Avenue ; or at Passaic Falls. 
Hamilton favored the Falls, and he won. 

In the meantime, new shops were 
springing up, feebly, to be sure, but in- 
creasing steadily in numbers, here in 
Newark, around our beloved old Four 
Corners. And an interesting fact about 
that beginning is that the Newark men 
in the van in all of these innovations 
were almost without exception veterans 
of the then very recent war. 

Why was this? The writer will let 
the reader figure it out, contenting him- 
self only with reminding him of what 
has already been said, that the in- 
dustries created after the war were 
looked upon as patriotic enterprises. 
The men who had risked their lives that 
America might be free, were real pa- 
triots. They now turned the same splen- 
did courage to that best of all uses of 
which the world has any knowledge, 
the fostering of peace through work, 
through industry. 

Moses Combs, who really put the 
town's industries on a well organized 
and practical basis, beginning with his 
shoemaking plant, was a soldier of the 
Revolution. Captain Pennington, who 
became Governor of New Jersey, was a 
hatter before the war and returned to 
his trade for a short time when it was 
over. Elisha iJoudinot, already men- 
tioned, was connected with the Conti- 
nental Army. The real organizer of 
the stage coach lines here and for many 
years a sort of transportation magnate, 
was Lieutenant Colonel John Noble 
Cummings. and there were more of pre- 
cisely the same stuff. Newark has never 
done them half enough honor. 

The first Inde])endence Day celebra- 
tion in Newark of which we have any 
record was in 1788. The account of the 
festivities is mo.st instructive. The war 
was but five years behind the people. 
They were sick and weary of the clash 
of arms. The comnnmity was just stag- 
gering back to its feet after the fearful

tirain upon its resources of every sort. 
They had a procession; yes, but there 
was nothing martial about it. A half 
troop of horse was the only trace of the 
military spirit, and the gentlemen in the 
saddle do not appear even to have worn 
uniforms. All the music they seem to 
have had was the ancient and honorable 
fife and drum. And the paraders were 
nearly all of them connected with one 
industry or another, except the school- 
bovs, who marched with their books un- 



River, at the foot of the present Bridge 
Street, the laying down of the rough log 
road across the marshes to the Hacken- 
sack, and the building of a bridge across 
the Hackensack. Before this great work 
could be so much as started, the men of 
means and initiative felt it was neces- 
sary to erect a new church, as the old 
one was too small. So the present First 
Presbvterian Church was built, and 
finished in 1791. About that time the 
Academy was erected at Broad Street

der their arms. Of course, the farmers 
were in greatest number, but it is sur- 
prising how many other callings were 
represented. Here they are : 

Tanners, curriers, cordwainers, car- 
penters and joiners, quarrymen, stone 
cutters, masons, blacksmiths, scythe 
makers, coach and chair makers, paint- 
ers, wheelwrights, comb makers, clock 
and watch makers, tailors, hatters, sad- 
dlers and harness makers, coopers, 
butchers, bakers, weavers, dyers and 
fullers, tobacconists, ditchers, furnace 
men. millers, ship carpenters. 

One may call this Independence Day 
demonstration the beginning of a new 
epoch for Newark, the formal erection 
of the industries to a place of deserved 
prominence and dignity. 

But there was needed one more mas- 
ter-stroke, to really put Newark unon 
the industrial map. Tt was the building 
of the first bridge across the Passaic 



and the present Academy Street, to pro- 
vide the town with a good school, and 
take the place of the building in Wash- 
ington Park, ruined by the English in 
1779. Then they were ready for the 
bridges. These were began in 1792 and 
completed early in 1795. 

Now was the town of Newark ready 
to wax and grow strong. This great 
improvement shortened the connection 
between New York and westward by 
several hours. From the beginning of 
the settlement Newark had been side- 
tracked as it were, being off the main 
line of travel. The East and West 
traffic passed through Elizabeth. To 
and from Elizabeth slow, clumsy and 
sometimes dangerous vessels moved the 
people and their goods, so. generation 
after generation. Newark had dozed and 
drowsed upon its hillsides, a pretty little 
village, and notliing more.

All that vanished, when the bridges 
were open. Newark now came into its 
own. Its shops and factories ninltiplied. 
Several lines of stages carried people 
into and out of the town, six days a 
week. Wagons and drays moved out 
the finished product and brought in the 
raw material in ever-increasing volume. 

Soon came Newark's wizard of m- 
vention, Seth Boyden, from New Eng- 
land, only a youth, to devise machinery 
for the making of better goods, and 
cheaper and in greater volume. Labor 



There is but one thing more to say, 
and this in conclusion. With the coming 
of the industries the pretty village of 
Newark sickened. The Newarkers of 
a hundred years ago and more had, 
somehow lost the neatness and orderli- 
ness of the founders and their immedi- 
ate successors. The new generations, 
following the War for Independence, be- 
came too intent on their work ; they 
piled their rubbish high about them. 
Broad Street became a wallow of mud. 
The people prospered, but they neglected

came down from the countryside in re- 
sponse to the demand. Then the early 
immigrants, the industries, increasing 
steadily, decade by decade. In the early 
Thirties of the last century the first 
railroad poked its clumsy length into 
Newark by the way of the first Centre 
Street bridge, around into Market, up 
to Broad, down into Broad and William 
Streets, and still further down later. It 
was closely followed by the Morris and 
Essex, which, for years hauled its trains 
with horses down Broad Street, through 
Park Place to Centre Street, thus to the 
line of the original road. 

Development followed swiftly after 
that. We know the result today; we 
see it all around us. 



their town. It was most regrettable, but 
Newark was simply following the order 
of things incidental to almost every 
other American village that had sprung 
suddenly out of quiet, easy-going ways, 
into a feverish striving in industrial 
activity. 

But we are changing all that today ; 
we have been changing it for the last 
two decades or so. Newark is now 
learning how to be rich and powerful 
and prosperous and at the same time 
attractive to live in. The new and 
greater, broader era is now with us. 
Newark is going to be a beautiful city. 
Indeed, it is so already to a far greater 
degree than most of us seem to com- 
prehend.

IE genius that made a Sett- 
ers' holiday of the opening 
(if the first grist mill and of 
tlie first saw mill in Old 
Xewark, was instinct with 
the prophecy of a proud industrial des- 
tiny that the New Newark — the Newark 
of today — has more than fulfilled. And 
there is greater yet for her behind the 
veil of the future ! By the time her next 
quarter-millennial feast is due she will 
have become that American Metropolis 
which Alexander Plamilton glimpsed on 
the west shore of the Hudson, away 
back in the Revolutionary days when he 
wrote the charter of the Society for the 
Promotion of Useful Alanufactures. It 
is not a far cry to the time when all of 
Essex will be Newark ; and the ag- 
grandized city, now the fourteenth in 
population in the country, will reach 
out for Jersey City and Hoboken, over 
there; for Paterson and Hackensack, 
up there ; and for Elizabeth, down yon- 
dt ^ and gather them all under her 
wing into one great municipality that 
will challenge even Greater New York's 
metropolitan supremacy.

r>ut that is prophecy; and prophecy 
is not the purpose of this book. The 
Newark of today has indeed, already 
achieved a greatness that the dream of 
the prophet is not needed to glorify. 
She has let nothing stand in the way of 
her resistless march to pre-eminence. 
When the seas defied her expansion, she 
wrested the meadows from them and 
planted her mills where the waters had 
been. She has pressed herself, through 
marsh and across meadow, into 23y^ 



squares miles of territory ; and, on the 
front of the bay and river which vainly 
challenged her efforts at expansion, she 
has a wharf frontage of IOI/2 miles. 
The tonnage of the business she does at 
that front reached nearly five millions 
last year, and its estimated value was 
close to forty millions. And, restless 
ever, she is now again planning, on her 
bay front, a new industrial city with a 
new water expansion that will give her 
a new station among the humming cen- 
tres of the nation. 

Her water freightage is, of course, 
but a part — and a small part — of her in- 
dustrial activity. The Exposition her 
manufacturing captains opened in the 
First Regiment Armory, three or four 
years ago, showed that. It was varied 
and imposing enough to attract 175,000 
visitors ; and the profits enabled the 
Board of Trade to get out a large vol- 
ume exhibiting the details of the city's 
busy workshops. That volume, sought 
all over the world for its pointers, lists 
?.")2 distinct lines of industrial endeavor 
in which Newark is engaged. Her 
manufacturing industries, indeed, en- 
gaged a capital of $175,000,000, and 
distributed $00,000,000 among their 
75.000 operators last vcar. In their 
shops thev transformed '$150,000,000 of 
raw material into $250,000,000 of the 
finished product. Twenty-three freight 
delivery yards were needed for the hand- 
ling of their stuff, and 254 freight trains 
daily for its transportation. The ton- 
natre delivered in the citv last year 
reached the fine total of 3.785.027. and 
that which went out aggregated 1.122.- 
072. Six railroads helped to carry this 
inland freight of hers ; while the under- 
river tubes, and twenty-three admirably-

depositors, reach a total of $140,000,000 ; 
their loans approximate $70,000,000. 

The Billion Dollar Mark 

Allied with these, financially, are two 
big life and three fire insurance com- 
panies. The combined resources of the 
city's national and state banks and trust 
and insurance companies go above the 
billion dollar mark ; it's the first time 
in her history when the city has been 
able to boast of her ten-figure greatness. 
There are, besides, more than 200 build- 



ing and loan associations which have 
become the savings banks of nearly 
70,000 shareholders; and these take in 
a trifle short of $30,000,000 a year. 

Her municipal equipment is on the 
same scale. It costs her $10,000,000 a 
vear to "keep house." But her ratables 
reach a total of $420,311,000 and her 
own 95 public buildings, parks and pro- 
pertv of other classes are valued at up- 
wards of $70,000,000. This does not 
include some millions advanced on ac- 
count of the big flume with which she is

to restore the i'assaic River to its 
mountain-stream purity. Her city hall, 
accounted one of the finest municipal 
buildings in the coimtry, represents a 
value of $3,000,000 ; the handsome pub- 
lic library, of $700,000; and Centre 
Market, of $900,000. These, with assets 
of other kinds, such as improvement 
assessment arrears, make her public debt 
of $;39.O00,OO() secure, with a total of 
nearly $10(),U()(),000 of possessions. 

The city had 255 miles of paved 
streets at the beginning of last year; 
and her 85 miles of brick and concrete 
sewers and 220 miles of pipe sewer 
tokened an outlay of $5,770,090 when 
the last published figures were made up. 
The reservoirs of her new water plant 
have a storage capacity of 9,285,700,0(M) 
gallons ; and the plant is equal to a 
gravity supply of 50,000,000 gallons per 
day ; the present daily consumption is 
42,000.000 gallons. She is lighted by 
1G2 flaming arcs, 2,565 arc electrics. 
2,000 c. p. lamps, 207 incandescents and 
2,037 gas lamps. 

Recreation Spots 

But it is not all work and no play with 
Miss Newark. She likes her recreation ; 
and the County Park Board has pro- 
vided her, in Branch Brook, with a splen- 
did reserve that landscape artists every- 
where rank as the finest artificial park 
in the country. Of her own parks — 
those she owns — ^Military Park, in the 
heart of the city, is the largest, and. 
more than all the others rich with his- 
toric associations. The city holds that 
grateful breathing spot at a value of 
$6,000,000. Washington Park, a little 
to the north of it, is set down as worth 
about $2,000,000; and Lincoln Park, 
at the other end of Broad Street, is 
quoted by the appraisers at $1,200,000. 
These are. however, only three of the 
city's recreation centres. There are 18 
others, besides the public playgrounds 
which she has opened for her little ones. 

For the rest, Newark, with a death 
rate of 14.3. can hold her own for health, 
and it is a new assurance of her growth 
that her birth rate is more than twice as 
big. And with a mean tem])eraturc of 
53.1° she is a decidedly salubrious ])lace 
to live in.

Newark's Educational Advantages 

Concise Description of the School Facilities 
of the City of Newark 




ROM the start, Newark has 
realized the worth of the 
school. The Puritans who 
founded her caught the in- 
fection from the Puritans of 
the East. She had not yet coined the 
word, but that "Efficiency" of which one 
hears so much nowadays, was the up- 
building idea that entered into all her 
enterprises. She thought that her 
children ought first to be shown "How," 
if they were to be fitted to "Know 
How" ; and as soon as she had made a 
clearing for her cabin homes she began 
to think about the school. 

Within ten years of the time when 
she had felled the first tree, she had her 
little classroom for the new population 




Dr. Addison E. Poland 
city superintendent of schools 



of the colony. John Catlin was not an 
Elliott or a Hibben, or a Butler, by any 
means. The times did not call for it. 
The primitives schooled their children 
in reading at home ; the school room was 
only for writing and 'rithmetic and the 
trowser-dusting birch. But Catlin's 
name will live immortal in our annals as 
that of our first School Master. A tab- 
let at Broad and Commerce Streets 
marks the spot where he swished the 
rod of discipline. 

Burr and Princeton 

And, as typifying her expanding edu- 
cational aspirations, the starting of the 
great Princeton University of today, by 
the Rev. Aaron Burr, in the old Meet- 
ing House on Branford Place, was a 
fete-day event. The Reverend was the 
father of the Aaron Burr who is famous 
in American history as the duelist with 
Hamilton, and later became Vice-Presi- 
dent of the United States. He was, 
when he founded the college that has 
grown into Princeton, the pastor of the 
old First Church on Broad Street, and 
afterwards the College's first President. 

And so, with incidents of more com- 
mon place character, the school idea has 
broadened and deepened and lengthened 
here till Newark has — well, one might 
say, accumulated — one of the proudest 
educational establishments in the coun- 
try. Her school properties are worth 
between ten and eleven millions of dol- 
lars. Under the eye of Dr. Addison B. 
Poland, selected as her School Superin- 
tendent fifteen years ago because of his 
pre-eminence among the educators of 
the country, are 4 High Schools. 5.^)

Elementary Schools, and 2 Industrial 
Schools. The opportunities the elemen- 
tary and high schools open to the com- 
munity are known of all men. The 
children bring the tidings of them home 
to us every day of the week. Those in 
the vocational schools are quite as varied 
and mavbe even more valuable in the 




Boys' Industrial School 

practical work of life. In the Boys' 
Industrial School pupils are tutored in 
woodwork, printing, electricity, etc. ; 
and in the girls they are given lessons 
in sewing, dressmaking, millinery, cook- 
ing, and in other things every woman 
ought to know. 

Besides, there are 10 classes for defec- 
tives, 7 for the deaf and the blind, 1 for 
cripples, and .") for open-air work and 
study. Summer schools are maintained 
in 2 High and 30 Elementary School 
buildings, and the experiment of all-year 
schools is being tried also. The ambition 
of her young folk who can devote only 
their evenings to learning "How," makes 
it necessary to conduct evening high 
school classes in six schools, besides 
other classes in the two industrial 
schools and in seventeen of the ele- 
mentary schools. 

$3,000,000 a Year 
For the instruction of the 70.000 who 
flock to these great educational cen- 
tres — for some of them are among the 
most pretentious and ornate and well- 
equipped in the United States — the city 



maintains a corps of 1,810 teachers for 
the day classes, 441 for the evening 
classes, and 132 for the all-year institu- 
tions. And it costs Newark a pretty 
penny too! The balance sheet of 1915 
exceeded $3,000,000. Of this imposing 
total, the railroads contributed $437,725 ; 
$53,500 came from the State Fund; 
$1,450,000 from the State School Tax. 
and Newark City paid the rest of the 
bill. Of course she is also heavily repre- 
sented in the state tax and state fund 
contributions. But Newark holds it 
among the very best of her investments 
and pays the bill with smiling satis- 
faction. The 70,000 enrollment repre- 
sents 19% of the city's population. In 
1880 the ratio was only 13%. New 
rigors in the enforcement of attendance 
laws account for the nearly fifty per 
cent, better showing. 

All the modern ideas are incorporated 
in the splendid system thus briefly 
sketched. There are school playgrounds, 
gymnasiums, vocational instruction, 
evening lectures, that are every one a 
treat, for the masses ; nurses to watch 
the youngsters and physicians to cure 
them of their ailments ; and Dr. Poland 




South Side Hich School Auditorium 

is trying, in the Cleveland School, a 
modification of the much vaunted Gary 
System that he expects to increase the 
school capacity, if generally employed, 
fifty to sixty per cent. It is a system of 
alternating classes by which the school

children, set oil in groups, rotate in 
their class work. 

Boys Lodyiny House School 

The first of the public schools was in 
the old "Boys' Lodging House," in 
which the Rev. C. H. Yatman was the 
moving spirit. The distinction of being 
the most venerable of the standing pub- 
lic school buildings is divided between 
that on State Street near Broad, and 
that on Market Street opposite the 
Court House. They have survived since 
1847. The contrast between them and 
the imposing Central High School on 
High Street, and the more ornate and 
quite as imposing South Side High 
School, tells the story of the greater city 
picturesquely. The latest of the build- 
ings to be completed, the AIcKinley in 
the heart of the Italian Colony, is, too, 
a model of educational completeness. 
These notations are not invidious. The 
city is studded with temples of learning 
that outshine the university of even 
modern days in some larger cities. 
Nearly $700,000 was spent on the Cen- 
tral Manual Training School on High 
Street. The South Side High is valued 
at nearly $150,000. The block-long 
Normal School on Belleville Avenue at 
Fourth, which the city built for its own 
use, but turned over to the State, repre- 
sents an investment of $375,000. The 
schools on Burnett Street and the Lafay- 
ette, Morton and Newton Schools have 
a value exceeding $300,000 each, and 
there are a half dozen others close to 
that line. 

The Parochial School Aid 

The city's free school equipment is 
supplemented by a parochial system that 
aids it substantially in its duty to its 
young. Under the fostering and en- 
lightened care of the Rev. John A. Dil- 
lon, Superintendent of Schools in the 
Newark Catholic Diocese, the parochial 
schools have grown enormously in effi- 
ciency and power. They are graded as 
our city grammar schools, and their 
diploma opens the door of the City High 
Schools to their graduates. 

They relieve the communities in this 
Diocese of the instruction of more than 
fiO.OOO pupils. More than 13,000 of the 
total are tutored in the 26 schools in

ers, carefully trained for their lifework 
in the Catholic Normal School at Con- 
vent Station. Their equipment here 
runs up into the millions in value and 
money has not been spared in providing 
facilities for the army of little students. 
The St. Rose of Lima School building 
on Orange Street in the Roseville Sec- 
tion, cannot have cost less than $150,000. 
That of St. Columba's School on South 
Street represents another outlay of 
$100,000. St. Benedict's is a type of 
many other edifices that come up to the 
$75,000 mark. And altogether, they 
make a splendid — indeed, in view of the 
pressure for public school room a 
needed — complement to the system the 
city has built up to prepare her rising 
citizenship for the luring possibilities of 
the vears ahead of it.

A Little Talk about her One Hundred and Seventy-nine 

Churches; the People who go to them, 

and the Others who don't 

Written by William E. Sackett 




N Newark's early history the 
Church was, so to speak, the 
Municipal Building also. 
The pioneers of 1666 were 
a well-established congrega- 
tion of Presbyters from Branford, Con- 
necticut, that came here to build a 
church and a city for the church to con- 
trol. The church went up on Broad 
Street, about opposite the place which 
gets its name from the old Connecticut 
town ; and became — to be more exact, 
was made — the centre of the new town's 




Old First Church 



civic and political as well as of its reli- 
gious activities. One could not vote in 
the Town Meeting unless he had a 
"First Church" membership card. 

The Theocracy — about the last of its 
kind to be attempted in this country — 
ran things here for many years. Its 
atmosphere lingered till the Theocracy 
expired in giving birth to the Presby- 
terian College which has grown into 
Princeton University. The old church's 
pastor of that day was the Rev. Aaron 
Burr — a name made even more famous 
in American annals by the wit and 
polish and exploits of the pastor's 
son, who first slew Hamilton, next 
became Vice-President of the United 
States, and wound up a career, as 
romantic as it was brilliant, with 
a plot against the life of the nation 
that had so honored him. The chief 
distinction of the elder Burr rests 
on his having become the first Presi- 
dent of Princeton College. And 
even to this day, the tradition of the 
city's religious birth is reflected in 
the preponderance of its Presby- 
terian Churches. 

Some More Reminiscences 

So, if space pennitted, one might 
go on weaving romances about the 
beginnings of scores of the one hun- 
dred and seventy-nine churches, 
chapels and mission houses that do 
so nmch for the uplift of the people. 
There, for instance, is the Old 
House of Prayer, up near the 
Lackawanna Station — well, the pop- 
ular nunor that it was once a 
Washington headquarters is a mere 
superstition ; but it is true that the 
Hessians housed in it on their way 
to the drubbing Washington gave

them in Trenton a little later. On the 
portals of Old Trinity — up in Military 
Park — a plate, implanted there by pat- 
riotic S. A. R., tells how, in 1776, 
"Washington and his army passed be- 
neath this tower on their masterly 
retreat to the hills beyond the Delaware 
to gather strength for the bold blow at 
Princeton and Trenton," that turned the 
tide of the Revolution. 

So it goes. The older of the church 
buildings "look" the history there is in 
them. From the Old Church at Lyons 
Farm came the First Baptist congrega- 
tion that founded what is now known 
as the Peddie Memorial. The Halscy 
Street Methodist is the mother church 
of the line of beautiful places of wor- 
ship that faith has scattered all over the 
city. From such beginnings as these, 
the denominations grew and grew ; one 
church no longer answered ; and many, 
and more, had to be provided for them, 
till now the city is studded with temples 
that make it at once beautiful and good. 

Of the 179 places of worship there 
are 35 Presbyterian Churches, 31 Catho- 
lic, 35 Baptist, 18 Methodist Episcopal, 
17 Episcopalian, 11 Synogagues, 10 
Lutheran, 8 Dutch Reformed, 4 Evan- 
gelical, 3 Congregational, 2 Christian 
Science, 2 Independent, 2 Greek Ortho- 
dox, 2 Seventh Day Baptist, a Metho- 
dist Protestant, a Reformed Episcopal, 
a LTniversalist. and a Christadelphian. 
For the rest, there are two "undenom- 
inational," and 3 African Methodist 
Episcopal Churches. The colored folks 
have also three of the array of Baptist 
Churches. A few of the edifices are 
small ; they are for new congregations 
or in mission fields. But the great, great 
majority of them are expensive and 
ornate edifices that contribute grace- 
fully to the perspective of the city's 
landscape. The investment they repre- 
sent runs up into many millions — 
twenty would be a conservative estimate. 

The Church Population 

The number of churches is not, how- 
ever, a wholly reliable guide for a com- 
parison as to attendance. At the altars 
of the 31 Catholic Churches more de- 
votees gather than around the pulpits of 




Rev. Aaron Burr 
founder of princeton college 

the 125 or more Protestant Churches. 
The congregations in the Catholic 
Churches exceed the Protestant congre- 
gations, in the item of membership, by 
maybe twenty thousand. There is 
nothing like an accurate church census 
anywhere. But the approximate figures 
collated by the Rev. Dr. Davis W. Lusk 
are quoted everywhere as authoritative. 
According to them. 50,000 represents 
the actual membership of the Protestant 
churches in the city. To these may be 
added another 50,000 representing rela- 
tives who go to church with them. That 
makes a total of 100,000 for the local 
Protestant community. 

The Catholics count all who have been 
baptised into the faith as members ; 
there were 120.000 of these in the city 
last year. As each parish is assessed 
according to its membership, it may be 
taken for granted that the total, offi- 
cially furnished, is not exaggerated. Tt 
may even be a bit under the mark ; and 
the Catholic poptdation may actually 
exceed the 120,000 mark. Presides the 
Catholics and Protestants who thus 
account for 220.000 of our 400.000 ix)i)U-

lation, there are about 5, 000 church 
folks of uiiscellaneous denominations — 
hke those of the Greek Church, whose 
Pope is the Czar of Russia. 

In the background is an unafliHated 
population of some 115,000 that does 
not go to church anywhere. There are 
not many of them, however, without 
their religious leanings, x^s the Catholic 
system is rigid, and that of the Pro- 
testants loose, in the matter of gathering 
the faithful to the fold, the assumption 
is that if these were forced into either 
Church, far the larger number would 
go to the Protestant side. Those thus 
brought within the Protestant atmos- 
phere have been estimated as high as 
100,000. But that is an outside esti- 
mate ; and indeed there is no way of 
telling anything about it — it is all specu- 
lation. There may be some infidels and 
scoflFers in the vast unattached throng; 



but even they would not care to be count- 
ed entirely out of the church atmosphere. 

Sixty Thousand Hehvews 

These speculations are all on the as- 
sumption that the estimate of G(),ooo 
Hebrews in the city approaches ac- 
curacy. The Jewish population grows 
quite as rapidly, proportionately, as tlie 
Catholic. An estimate of ten years ago 
i:)laced their number at only 50,000. 
They are quite as devoted to their tem- 
ples as the Catholics to theirs, and can 
claim few of the community of 115,000 
unattached. The men are as regular in 
their attendance at the synagogues as are 
the women ; and the Men's Forward 
Movement, by which the Protestant de- 
nominations are trying to induce the 
husbands to go to church with their 
wives and participate in church work, is 
hardlv necessarv in the ITouse of Israel.

UT then Newark can play as 
hard as she can work — and 
maybe with even more zest. 
Playroom is one of her 
neediest needs ; and, in pro- 
viding herself with it, she thriftily hits 
a second bird with one stone. Her play- 
grounds provide, beside the recreation 
centres, a group of breathing spots for 




run — or rather in the short run, because 
they soon jump values up all around 
them and so win back for the city in 
taxes more than she risks to get them. 
Newark has a lot of these fine in- 
vestments, to say nothing of the play- 
grounds and minor recreation centres ; 
and her Shade Tree Commission is 
doing what it can to give the whole city

the homes that have them none too 
abundantly. She finds it pays to keep 
people well as well as to make them 
happy. The well man is likely to be a 
happy man, the happy man to be a well 
one ; and the happier and healthier they 
are the greater the power of their arms 
and the longer the endurance. Plans 
that make for the either that brings both 
have their economic, as well as their 
sanitary, aspects ; they find compensa- 
tion in the workshop, in the counting 
room, and in all the varied activities of 
her busy life. And the breathing spots 
pay for themselves, too, in the long 



a park-scape aspect. Two of the great- 
est parks in the State are within her 
limit. One of them is noted among land- 
scape artists everywhere as the most 
beautiful artificial park in the country. 
Neither is under Newark's immediate 
control ; neither is therefore part of her 
numicipal equipment; a specially created 
County Park Board is named by the 
Supreme Court Justice presiding in the 
local circuit to manage them. But

tains them is derived in large measure 
from iier taxpayers. So that, both from 
the geographical and financial stand- 
points they are quite as local to this 
community as if they were all the com- 
munity's own. 

Three other parks within the city 
limits but also within the County Park 
Commission's dominion, are fine ex- 
amples of what the park builders happily 
call "Neighborhood Parks." They are 
the East Side, the West Side and the 
River-bank — laid out and operated with 



redolent, every foot of it, of the his- 
torical past, and part of the city's glory. 
The reference is now of course to 
Military Park, the elm shaded Com- 
mon of the old settlers. If that little 
patch of green were not so dear to the 
taxpayer's heart, it might be accounted 
a bit too dear for the taxpayer's purse. 
It is less than the hundredth part the 
size of Branch Brook, let us say for the 
contrast, but it is worth more than twice 
as much. The $6,000,000 Newark holds

special regard to the immediate local 
surroundings and needs. The East Side 
is down on Adams Street toward the 
Newark meadows ; West Side is on 
"The Hill" ; River-bank on the Passaic 
front near Market Street. The twelve 
and a half acres in East Side Park have 
been laid out at an expense of $124,372 
for land and $53,878 for furnishings. 
There are twenty-three acres in West 
Side and the Park Board has spent all 
told something around $400,000 on it.

The city herself has now twenty-two 
parks, all of the neighborhood variety,

they would pour into her treasury if 
her tradesmen could only have it set ofiF 
to them in 35 x 100 lots and made part

it if they were given a chance ; and the 
community gladly tolerates even its 
array of seedy "benchers" for the senti- 
ment of local loyalty its lawn of velvet, 
its towering elms and planes, its ancient 
church and its old liberty pole inspire.

would never suspect that all that garden 
of flowers, of running stream and lake, 
of woodland patches surrounding great 
fields of velvet green that appeal to 
one's sense of magnitude, of nooks and

could have been evolved from anything

It would be idle to attempt to picture

thing over $3,500,000 ; and its care with 
that of the others has grown to be so 
mighty an undertaking that the Com- 
mission has found it necessary to have 
a fitting administration building. That 
is going up now — a $70,000 home ot

the hill tops to the lake-front; rustic 
bowers and summer houses ; a patch of 
refulgent rhodendrons that fairly light 
the wayside and the chrysanthemum and 
begonia show recurring season sights. 

And so it goes — everything that is 
brightest, showiest, most restful, in 
nature. And for the more restless, the 
busier things of sport — nets for tennis ; 
wickets for croquet ; bases for "the fan" ; 
goals for the kicker; links for the 
golfer; boats for the gondolier and

reserve is the picturesque fountain for

expansive, with 315 acres ; but, with 
only about $800,000 spent on it so far, it 
is not as expensive. It has however, 
special features that attract particular 
throngs. There's its race track, for in- 
stance, its exclusive feature. Much of 
the park land was in use for many years 
as the Fair Ground of the State Agri- 
cultural Society ; and the race course is 
the heritage of the Commission from 
that Association. But it has all been 
made over, and re-topped into the fast- 
est half-mile course in the East; and a

and all the other et ceteras. Houses on 
the ground are furnished with lines of 
indoor games; the girls are tutored in 
sewing, rafia work and reed weaving; 
and clubs for music, oratory and the 
drama are encouraged among the young 
of both sexes. 

The Recreation Commission super- 
vises all of these increasingly popular 
play places that are doing so much for 
the pleasure of little ones whose lives 
would be cheerless without, and to keep

circle inside the running track for ath- 
letic games, too. The Road Horse As- 
sociation airs its trotters there often ; 
and the track has become so popular 
that the old grandstand is no longer 
equal to demands upon it. The Commis- 
sion has therefore added to the track 
equipment, at an expense of $40,000, a 
grandstand of concrete, 2,371 feet long 
and 71 feet wide. 

Both engaged in recreation and beau- 
tification work, the Play Ground and 
Shade Tree Commissions are close allies 
of the park chiefs in city and county. 
The play ground idea is to utilize the 
waste places for the outing and amuse- 
ment of the youngsters ; and they are 
fitted with all the appliances that make 
for youthful sport. In most of them 
are the parallel bars, swings, teeters, 
slides, great strides, sand boxes, basket

bath house facility for the refreshing 
and invigorating plunge. These bathing 
resorts are completely equipped. One 
of them, the Montgomery Bath, cost 
$110,000. It is claimed to be the finest 
in the country ; safe to say it is one of 
the finest, at any rate.

menship and in war. The Frelinghiiy- 
sen name has been blazened on the 
scroll of American scholarship and 
state-craft for more than a century. 
One of the family was Burr's successor 
as President of Princeton College ; and 
two generations of the family have given 
New Jersey two noted figures in the 
United States Senate. He whose monu- 
ment adorns Military Park was one of 
these honored two. As a Senator he 
won nation-wide recognition for the 
finish of his oratory. President Hayes 
gave him a seat in his Cabinet with the 
portfolio of Secretary of State ; and 
his statue stands in front of the family's 
homestead now occupied by his son, 
President Frelinghuysen of the Mutual 
Benefit Insurance Co. of this city. As 
for Kearny, every veteran knows the 
story of his wild cavalry dashes during 
"The War." The monument in Mili- 
tary Park, was kicked around and neg- 
lected in the dust of the corridors of 
the State House in Trenton for many 
vears till the S. A. R. rescued it, dusted 



it off, and set it up with military honors 
under the liberty pole. 

The figure in bronze of Vicar General 
Doane, just outside the park gates, com- 
memorates the work of a Prelate of 
great civic and church activity. In 
Washington Park, a bit up the street, is 
the statue of Seth Boyden, famed as the 
inventor of the malleable iron process. 
The equestrian monument of General

Newark's Police Protection 

The Transformation of the "Leather Head" into "The 

Finest" — Modern Methods that have made the 

Policeman the Friend of the People 




KWARK began her police 
business with a constable. 
That is orthodox ; all new 
c(iinmunities start out that 
way. The glamour that 
hangs around every first of his line 
hovers over the memory of Thomas 
Johnson whom the Town Fathers, in 
January, 1668, named, first of his kind, 
"to beare the Ofifice of Constable in Our 
Town for the Year Insuing." One con- 
stable kept "Our Town" in order for 
five years, when a second one was ap- 
pointed ; but by 1684 it had become so 
inconceivably wicked that it was found 
necessary to increase the force to eight. 
The first of the Constables was, in a 
way, a general utility man for the com- 
munity. He was not only to arrest 
people, but was a sort of "whip" for 
the Town Fathers. He came around 
for a fine from every non-attendant at 
the Town Meetings, and generally busied 
himself in making life as uncomfortable 
as he could for his fellow men. From 
th's primitive conception of the police 
function, the idea has branched out into 
the beneficence that makes the police- 
man of today the friend of the people, 
rather than the terror the unsophis- 
ticated picture him. He guides us, 
awake; guards us while we sleep; finds 
our little ones when we lose them (feeds 
them too, sometimes), and keeps the 
jo- -ider" from crushing us under his 
naut at the street crossings. Chief 
Oi rolice, Michael T. Long, indeed, 
counts the trafiice service his men ren- 
der at the points where vehicle and way-

farer swarm, as one of the most humane 
of his department activities. 

The "Leather Heads" 

But the city has not jumped from her 
constable swathes into the great uni- 
formed service of today. She has 
reached it progressively. Next after 
"Our Town's" constable, came the 
"Night Watch," as they were officially 
called, but the irreverent populace dub- 
bed them "Leather Heads" because they 
wore helmets like unto that which dis-

figures the fireman's form divine. This 
was the only token of their pre-emin- 
ence among the citizens. It was not 
until 1846 that they were given the club 
that has since won world-wide recogni- 
tion as the token of their authority. 
And only when "Our Town" had be- 
come a city did she add a uniform to 
the helmet and the club, and so dress 
her "Finest" up for the modern day 
parade. 

The town had meanwhile been divided 



in Roseville, and enjoys the distinction 
of being the first Police Chief in the 
United States to reach the position as 
the result of a Civil Service examination. 
Under his command are 761 men, with 
13 Captains, B2 Lieutenants, 55 Ser- 
geants and 11 Matrons, and the cost of 
maintenance last year was $1,026,432. 
The record of their work in the sup- 
pression of crime is the most notable, 
even if it be not the most interesting, 
feature of the Chief's annual report. 




Mounted Squad 



into "Watch Districts." When she was 
incorporated in 1836, she started in with 
a captain and twelve of the "Leather 
Heads." It was not till 1854 that they 
were designated as "Police" and decor- 
ated with the shields. Three years later 
the city had her first Chief of Police in 
the person of Henry A. Whitney ; and, 
under the administration of fifteen suc- 
cessors, the department has grown into 
the great machine for good it is today. 
Chief Long is the fifteenth of his line. 
Within the last month he has struck the 
thirtieth anniversary of his advent into 
the department. He had served with the 
detective bureau for some years before he 
was made captain of the Police Precinct 



Last year they bagged six brokers, four 
artists, twenty-two doctors, a dozen law- 
years and even five clergymen. There 
were three Japanese, eight Turks and 
even a native of Africa in the list. The 
Russians, Poles and Austrians made up 
the bulk of the police court crowds. 

Thumb-Print Sensations 

Newark was the first city in the 
country to adopt the Bertillon thumb- 
print system of identification. The 
Chinese used the thumb-print for signa- 
ture fifteen hundred years ago ; but it 
is only within the last fifteen or twenty 
years that the worth of the finger-mark 
began to be appreciated in police work.

Boston tried it first on this side of the 
sea, and Newark was next to follow 
suit. Superintendent Schwartz is full 
of stories of the effective operation of 
the system in fixing guilt. The first con- 
viction in the United States on thumb- 
print proof was on evidence procured 
by our local department; and the first 
murder fixed on its perpertrator in the 
country by fingermarks was in the 
courts of this county. 

A remarkable instance of the worth of 
the system was furnished in connection 



police sleuths and is now serving his 
term in the State's Prison for the crime. 
But arresting men has been after all 
a comparatively inconsiderable propor- 
tion of the work of the department. The 
police help in so many directions that 
the men of the force have to be not only 
level-headed and cool-headed but in- 
formed. There is hardly a minute in 
the day when an officer is not confronted 
by the question of should he act, and 
how far can he go ? He is the moment- 
ary judge and juror in every new situ-

with the robbery of the house of Ex- 
Senator Ernest R. Ackerman, of Plain- 
field. "Second-story men" got away 
with a necklace worth $17,000. Supt. 
Schwartz inspected the porch-posts 
down which the thief had slidden when 
escaping, and detected finger-marks that, 
upon an examination of his records here, 
proved to be those of a "crook" of na- 
tion-wide activities. That man had 
never been even so much as suspected ; 
and w^as even then away off in Chicago. 
He was hunted in his haunts by the 



ation. So he must know "The Law and 
the Gospel," the law of the land, the 
law of humanity, the law of discretion 
and the law of force. His requirements 
for the information that fits him to do 
his fullest duty and yet never exceed it, 
has led to the establishment of a De- 
partment School where he is tutored and 
advised, warned and inspired. Chief 
Long is particularly proud of this "Col- 
lege," and lauds it as his chief aid in 
keeping his department up to the stand- 
ard of any other in the country.

The Fire-Fighters of Newark 

The Blaze of 1836 would not have eaten out the City's 
Heart if she had been equipped as today 




I^WARK has had some not- 
able fires, and some appeal- 
ing ones, too, as for instance, 
that of two or three years 
ago, that cost the lives of 
twenty-seven young women. But she 
has had none that stunned her civic 
senses as the great blaze of 1836. Sweep- 
ing the block bounded by Market, Broad, 
Mulberry and Mechanic Streets, that ate 
out her very heart. A boarding house 
blaze in the same locality in 1845 gave 
the town a fresh fright ; and someone of 
a flamboyant frame of mind, made a 
lurid picture of the showy blaze that 
has got into history. But the epoch 
making blaze of local annals was that 
of 1836. 

The City's Equipment 

If the city had had at command, at 
that visitation, the splendid fire fighting 
machine over which Fire Chief Paul J. 
Moore presides, the flames might have 
been stayed wdiere they began. If the 
ravages of the Fire Devil had demanded, 
he could have rung to the rescue 16 
horse-drawn engines, 4 horse-drawn 
steamers, 21 combination chemical en- 
gines, 2 horse-drawn hook-and-ladder 
trucks, 6 motor-driven fire engines, a 
motor-drawn combination chemical en- 
gine, and an electric-drawn hook-and- 
ladder truck. There are many mighty 
machines in the department; and one 
among them, the Amoskeag in No. 3 
Engine House, with a capacity of 1,300 
gallons a minute, can pump a three-line 
one-and-a-half inch nozzle stream some 
feet higher than the shining tower of 
the Prudential Building. 

But the periled colony of 1836 had 
only a volunteer force — enthusiasts, but 
only amateurs after all — with a wheezy 
engine or two to fight the flames. The 
department records do not show when 



the half-paid service came into being. 
But when the steam fire engine replaced 
the old hand-pump contrivance, the 
volunteer had to make way for the com- 
petent engineer; and the old timer sur- 
vived only to man the machine and 
stretch the hose and climb the ladder. 
In 1889 the city put them out of com- 




FiRE Chiei- Paul J. Mooku 

mission entirely with the all-paid depart- 
ment that has grown in proportions until 
it has become what it is today. 

The present force consists of 466 
trained men ; has, besides the Chief, 2 
Deputy Chiefs and 5 Battalion Chiefs 
for its administration ; and is divided 
into 39 organized companies housed in 
33 buildings. The value of the plant 
is a trifle short of $1,500,000; the cost

of maintenance, $713,430 ; and it was 
effective in keeping the year's losses, on 
1,795 calls, down to less than a million 
dollars. 

A Man and a Horse 

Scarce a man in the department has 
reached his position except through his 
baptism of fire ; and the Commissioners 
keep even these seasoned and practiced 
heroes abreast with the times in the 




"Dick" 

matter of fire fighting science by requir- 
ing them all to attend the department 
"College" once a week. The Dean of 
the force, as one might say, is Captain 
Thomas of No. 19 Engine Company — a 
naval veteran of the Civil War, serving 
in Captain Cushing's Man-of-Warsman 
Schokokon, who entered the service in 



1873. Of course he is one of the figures 
in the department. But the talk of the 
firemen is not all about the men. Their 
horses are their pets and pride. There 
are 142 of these; but one of them is 
specially notable because he holds the 
record for "runs." That's old "Dick" 
of Engine Company No. 12's team of 
three ; and, each horse being known by 
a number, his is 5G. Paul Moore, now 
the Chief of the Fire Department, helped 
to initiate him when he came into the 
service fifteen years ago. A feature of 
the fiftieth anniversary fete of the 
paid Fire Department of New York a 
year ago, was a procession of horses 
that had made records in the matter of 
the number of responses to alarms. The 
l)est of them was about 1,700; "Dick" 
beats that, two-to-one, with a record of 
3,700. During the years he has been in 
the department he has not been "absent 
from duty" except for 33 days when 
recovering from injuries sustained in 
the service. He was laid up once by a 
nail in the foot and again as the result 
of a collision. "Dick" is a flea-bitten 
gray, nineteen years old, fifteen and a 
half hands high, and 1,400 pounds in 
weight. "And," Chief Moore says, "he's 
as good a fireman as the best of us." 

If there only were space to exploit 
department lore ! But there is'nt ! And 
yet, where is there a richer field for it 
than a firehouse?

How to Spend the Day 

Is there a lull in the program — a gap you would 
fill to best advantage — something to make the holi- 
day complete and yet not tiresome? 

Try a Trolley Trip. Become acquainted with the ex- 
panse of the greater Newark. Ride out to Eagle Rock, 
to picturesque Caldwell, or stop off at Verona Lake. 

Fast Line for Perth Amboy with connection for shore 
resorts or trolley express service to New Brunswick, 
Trenton, Camden and Philadelphia. 



Visit Public Service Terminal 



Be Comfortable at Home 



Learn of the innumerable conveniences and comforts 
of gas and electric appliances. 

The electric fan at the turn of a switch will banish all 
stufTmess; the gas range, ready on the instant, makes 
no unnecessary heat; the gas water heater will have 
the refreshing bath ready just when wanted. 

There are many more gas and electric devices for 
cooking and other household uses that save in time 
and energy, and at a minimum of cost.

NEWARK'S ANNIVERSARY 




Electrical Indicating 
Instruments 

Standard of the World! 

An A.C. or D.C. Instrument for every purpose — 
laboratory, central station or for any form of 
commercial electrical measurement or testing. 

The Weston A. C. Switchboard Instruments 

are unrivalled with respect to mechanical and 
electrical design and workmanship and hence 
with respect to performance. 

Competent engineers know that these Weston 
Instnmients are the only types that perfectly 
meet the practical requirements of service, and 
they likewise know the initial cost is little, if 
any more, than the cost of inferior instruments, 
and that because of their continuous accuracy 
and serviceability these Weston Instruments 
are much more economical to adopt than in- 
struments of any other make. 




A. C. S«'itchboar€l 
Wattmeter, Model IG" 



Model 1 Portable D. C. Voltmeters 

are guaranteed to an accuracy of ^^ of 
1% (in terms of full scale length). They 
are dead-beat. The knife-edge pointer 
travelling over a mirror, readings may 
be made within Ho of a division of any 
part of the hand-calibrated scale. 

In external appearance they are very 
handsome. The metal case has an ex- 
ceedingly durable royal copper finish. 
The base is of selected mahogany, highly 
polished. 




Model 1 



Weston A. C. Switchboard Instruments are fully described in 
Catalog 16. Model 1 and the various other D. C. Portable In- 
struments are described in Bulletin 501. 

No matter what your requirements may be, state them and we 
will forward appropriate Bulletins.
